memory usage with background image

i have seen the “dude.exe” use over 350MB of memory when using a backgound image.
i removed the image and restarted and memory usage wentdown to about 12MB.

More testing shows that memory usage varys anywhere from 40 to 370MB when using the zoom with the image. the back ground picture i am using is a 207KB jpeg image.

Has anyone else seen this problem?


The Dude has changed much since the first release. Everyone at our office is really excited about the Dude. Keep up the good work.

thank you for the report, we will try to optimize it in on of the next releases.
